“Sometimes I think on television, you use maybe a tenth of what you are able to do. So it’s nice to go, Well, I’m gonna take two months and reinvest in acting and storytelling.

“I'm sure a lot of you had this experience when you're changing. You're growing as a person and people tend to treat you like you were 18 months ago, and it's really frustrating sometimes when you're growing up and you're more capable. It's the same thing with a company and the press. The press is going to have a lag time. The best thing we can do about the press is embrace them and do the best thing we can to educate them about our strategy. But to keep our eye on the prize, that is turning out some great products. the press and the stock prize will take care of themselves.” PeopleInspirationalPersonsSometimesEyeCareCan DoCompanyGrowing UpGrowingProductsLike YouMonthsCapableTreatsStrategyPressesEmbraceTake CareBest ThingsPrizeEducateFrustratingDo The BestLagEye On The PrizeGrowing As A Person Author:Steve Jobs
“My books are based on the "what if" principle. "What if you became invisible?" or "What if you did change into your mother for one day?" I then take it from there. Each book takes several months in the long process of writing, rewriting, writing, rewriting, and each has its own set of problems. The one thing I dislike about the writing process is the sometimes-loneliness of it all. Readers only get to see the glamour part of a bound book, not some of the agonizing moments one has while constructing it.” IfsWritingLongBookSometimesMomentsProblemMotherProcessPrinciplesOne ThingLonelinessMonthsReaderOne DayBoundsInvisibleWhat IfDislikeWriting ProcessGlamourRewritingAgonizing Author:Mary Rodgers
“I've never had a block. I'm talking within the limits of my abilities. But in my own small way, I've had an embarrassment of riches. I'll have five ideas and I'm dying to do them all. It takes weeks or months where I agonize and obsess over which to do next. I wish sometimes someone would choose for me. If someone said, Do idea number three next, that would be fine.

“If you raise children, you forget what age they are. I mean you don't literally forget, but you treat a 13-year-old like she's 10 and there's a big difference in those three years and they can't stand it. They want to be treated like they're 17 when they're 13. And sometimes you can't help thinking of them as if they were 10 or 10 months old because it's all so recent. So we do overprotect sometimes.” IfsThinkingWantYearsMeanChildrenSometimesHelpingBigsAgeThreeDifferencesForgetMonthsTreatsRaisesTreatedThree Years Author:Meryl Streep
“I believe it should be the legal right of any woman who wants to have an abortion to have one.

“Character actors just pile up the credits because you work on a movie for like a few days. It's not like I'm the lead in everything I do - far from it.

“There is a string attached to Maia Sharp's voice. And when she sings, you find that the other end is attached to your gut. Her voice is lush and sensual and the emotions she articulates resonate with the small feelings we have that sometimes are hard to face..there is an edge to her songs, but also a softness...she is lyrical and conversational at the same time. Her CD was the only one in my machine for a month. Her work inspires me to dig deeper.” EndsSometimesHardFeelingsFacesSongVoiceEmotionInspireMonthsMachinesEdgesDeeperSensualGutsStringsCdsLyricalSoftnessDig DeepLushStrings Attached Author:Kathy Mattea
“The habits of a lifetime when everything else had to come before writing are not easily broken, even when circumstances now often make it possible for writing to be first; habits of years - responses to others, distractibility, responsibility for daily matters - stay with you, mark you, become you. The cost of discontinuity (that pattern still imposed on women) is such a weight of things unsaid, an accumulation of material so great, that everything starts up something else in me; what should take weeks take me sometimes months to write; what should take months, takes years.” ShouldWritingYearsFirstsStillsSometimesMatterResponsibilityWeekMaterialsBrokenMonthsHabitCircumstancesCostWeightMarkLifetimeResponsePatternsTake MeAccumulationUnsaidDiscontinuity Book:Silences Source: Silences
